Ahhhhh! A whole day of scrapbooking. A day to myself when I could just sit back and relax and do what I want to do. I had so much fun. I got a lot of cool layouts done. I cannot wait to go again next month. When I came home the children showed me that they had gone out and bought the books to put their state quarters in. The day before yesterday, on a whim, they both decided that they wanted to collect all the state quarters. So now the hunt is on!!! Hannah only has two to go to have all the continental states. Tristan needs 8 or 9.

Our family

Welcome to our life

Hi,We are a homeschooling family with an 12 yr old, a 10 yr old, and a 6 yr old who is attending a local school for children who have special needs.We love movies, theatre, travel, bocce, the beach, our friends, and entertaining. As a family, we do most things together and enjoy each other. We also have my father in law living with us and that adds to our dynamics in such an enriching way. We have chickens and two cats. We live in the country and enjoy our acre of green space.We try and be earth conscious. We recycle and compost and try and grow a lot of our veggies in our gardens. But mostly we "chaos garden" and plant a bunch and see what comes up!We are trying to teach our kids that they live on the earth and they must take care of it so their kids will have a decent place to grow as well.
